So even though you may have seen your fair share of foie gras burgers, let us recommend the first US outpost
of a wildly popular Korean hot dog chain with a twist: New YorkHotdog & Coffee, now open
on Bleecker Street.

Despite its simple name and minimalist white décor, New York Hotdog & Coffee comes off as the quirky Korean
lovechild of Crif Dogs, Woo Lae Oak and Starbucks.

The first thing you'll notice walking in the breezy storefront are startling oversized posters of happy
eaters scarfing down various hot dog monstrosities. And you'll do good to follow suit. Go for a weekend
lunch, start with a Bulgogi Hotdog (a beef hot dog topped with Korean bbq'd beef) or a
Dak-Kalbi Hotdog (a chicken sausage topped with teriyaki chicken), and settle in the back lounge
for an East-meets-West midday double meat treat.

The rest of the menu includes randomness like hot dog-shaped waffles, smoothies, frozen yogurt, coffee and a
few breakfast noshes like the glorious flagel (a flat bagel).
